James Badge Dale (born James Badgett Dale; May 1, 1978) is an American actor. He is best known for his roles as Chase Edmunds in 24, Robert Leckie in The Pacific, Trooper Barrigan in The Departed, Luke Lewenden in The Grey, Eric Savin in Iron Man 3, and Tyrone S. "Rone" Woods in 13 Hours.
Early life[edit]
James Badgett Dale[1] was born in New York City's Manhattan borough on May 1, 1978, the only child of actress and singer Anita Morris (1943–1994) and actor and dancer Grover Dale (born 1935). He was educated at Wonderland Avenue Elementary School in the Laurel Canyon neighborhood of Los Angeles. At the age of 10, he was picked out of his fifth grade class to audition for the role of Simon in the 1990 film Lord of the Flies. After gaining the role and spending five months filming on location in Jamaica, he returned to his schooling at Wonderland.
Career[edit]
Dale's most notable roles to date are Simon in the 1990 film Lord of the Flies and Chase Edmunds in the third season of the Fox series 24 (which he later reprised in 24: The Game). He also appeared in CSI: Miami and CSI: NY as serial killer Henry Darius. The storyline originally began in the CSI: Miami episode "Felony" and ended with the CSI: NY episode "Manhattan Manhunt", resulting in a crossover between the two shows.[citation needed]
In 2006, Dale was cast in the pivotal supporting role of Trooper Barrigan in The Departed. He then was cast as the lead in AMC's political thriller Rubicon which revolves around a secret society that pulls the strings on the world political stage like the alleged Illuminati and the Council on Foreign Relations. It centers on brilliant analyst Will Travers (Dale) discovering that his employers are not who they seem to be. He also stars as Robert Leckie, one of the three leads in the HBO miniseries The Pacific from executive producers Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.[2]
In 2013, Dale played Eric Savin in the Marvel superhero film Iron Man 3, Captain Speke in the science fiction thriller World War Z, Dan Reid in Disney's The Lone Ranger, and the brother of Lee Harvey Oswald in Parkland. In 2014, he starred in an off-Broadway production of Small Engine Repair.
Personal life[edit]
Dale is in a relationship with actress Emily Wickersham. They have a son born in 2021.
